Fabriksstadt 1939

"Fabriksstadt" (Factory City) created in 1939 by German artist Karl Wiener, is a captivating depiction of an industrial cityscape. The artwork features a vibrant yellow sky with a red sun emanating radiant rays, casting a dramatic contrast against the dark, angular forms of factories and smokestacks. The image conveys a sense of both dynamism and unease, reflecting the era's industrialization and potential for conflict. Wiener's simplified geometric forms and bold use of color in "Fabriksstadt" are hallmarks of the Expressionist style, showcasing the artist's powerful vision of modern life.
